I miss your laughter
Your funny voices and faces
The way you teased your sisters
The way you said,”I love you mom “
Those great bear hugs
Your piercing blue eyes
Holding you when you were sad
The calm in you when you were on the water
Your face when you looked at your sweet daughter
Your hot head when you thought someone had hurt me
Your empathy when anyone was hurting
Your need to be truly heard
Your amazing heart
The way you fussed when it was too far to drive to my house
The way you sang from your soul
Your love of music
How you loved and cared about your friends
Even the ever irritating 👍
How even now you communicate that to me
My heart aches for you
There is no air on this Thanksgiving as I sit alone remembering …so very broken
I know you are in a perfect place but this mother’s heart will never mend this side of heaven
Endless endless tears few can really understand
The audible crack in my world the day you left it still reverberating
No one can heal this…I just endure
Always watching for the blue orbs and your👍
I know you are here
I love you son
